The System Management Console installation uses Java Web Start technology.
You can install only one version of the System Management Console on a
workstation. During installation of the System Management Console, the Java
Machine uses the JNLP file to obtain version information.
The System Management Console version must correspond to the load version
that you are installing. You can view the current System Management Console
version by selecting Help > About MCP System Management Console. Before
deploying software upgrades, you must upgrade the System Management Console
to the equivalent version. Each time you start the System Management Console,
the system automatically checks for and applies updates.
